Evanston/Summit Zone - Park City Family Tree - We Slaughtered a Cow

Look who found me at the Family Tree in Park City!Sis. Halsey!!

Oct. 24, 2016

Dear Family,

This week has been so crazy. We are now a part of the
Evanston/Summit Zone. So many changes have taken place. We have doubled the
number of missionaries here in Evanston going from 2 companionships to 4. We
are each splitting a stake. We now cover 6th ward, 3rd ward and the YSA Branch.
We are bummed we don't cover the other wards (especially Almy), but we know
they are all in good hands. Elder Taylor (MTC companion) and Elder Bade are
covering the other half. Our zone now covers Evanston, Coalville, Kamas, Park City and
a few other little towns in Summit County. We are pretty much a Utah zone now.
We have 3 companionships of Sisters serving in the Park City Family Tree Center. It is a cool
visitors' center that helps you learn more about your ancestors. It's on Main Street in Park City and was built in preparation for
the Olympics. The Sisters serving there get special visitors' center training
while in the MTC. It is a crazy cool place.

We slaughtered a cow this week! We got a call asking if we
could come and help for service and he said to wear clothes that could get
bloody and to call him when we were ready to ask for directions. We pulled up
thinking he shot a deer or something, and as I was opening the gate to this
field, I hear a gunshot and see this cow drop to the ground... I was like
"HOLY COW!" ha ha I wont go into details, but it was messy and
Elder Douglass almost lost his lunch.

I love you all and know that Christ is the King of Kings and
Lord of Lords!
